Meet our New Members
Terry and Crystal opened The Zone in April of 2005.
This was in addition to Terry’s Hideout in Melvina,
which was Terry’s pride and joy for 23 years until we sold
it in 2015 to exclusively put more time into The Zone.
They pride themselves in running a true sports bar with
having great sports memorabilia, volleyball court,
kickball field, Cornhole, and horseshoes all on our 6
acres.
The Zone offers a full bar menu with many favorites,
including The Zone Burger. Our burgers and roasts are
all farm to plate. April through November we serve
charcoal chicken on Sundays. And of course, as
Wisconsin tradition, we serve Friday Fish Fry
throughout the year.
In the last couple of years, we have worked hard on some
renovation projects. We added a private dining area that
can also be used for gatherings and celebrations. We
have expanded our back patio and added a band stage
that we are looking forward to utilizing for some good outdoor entertainment. Not new but we do have a par-
ty shed out back that is utilized for banquets, fundraisers, baby/bridal showers, grad parties, weddings, and
various other celebrations.
We are actively involved in our community’s youth sports, sponsoring different events and teams throughout
the year. We value the importance of keeping kids actively engaged and working together as a team.
The Zone is truly a family business with everyone helping out in many ways. Each of our four children, Tyler,
Cody, Gabby, and Tanner, enjoy having their own responsibilities at the bar helping wherever they can. By
working together as a family, we enjoy seeing your families come in together to dine with us.
